| Quote: Paul HHZ "Definitely feel for 'Fax today. Do they not offer as much, if not more than Wakey?
They must be wondering what needs to be done to get in?
Barring the inevitable eventual failure of Quins, it's hard to see how any Championship side can ever 'out-do' a SL side in the criteria stakes.'"
You wont have to, I reckon it'll be 16 teams in '14. One expansion, one heartland

Jeez - that's a bit rich from a team who got thrown out of the Cup last year.

Yeah - people like promotion. They're just not too keen on the relegation that goes with it.
Why don't we just have one big division of 34 ? Hey - why stop there ? Let's include all the amateurs too.

| The so called 'lesser' clubs in SL tried to have it increased to 16 teams earlier in the year but it was voted down because the five largest spending clubs didn't want a smaller share of money.

My point is that the RFL will alter the rules for franchising to accomodate any agenda that SKY TV have or the stupid ideas that they can come up with.

Unfortunately for you I think you need a read of the rulebook because administration does not include being kicked out. I think you should have come up but instead of crying about it why don't you do a Widnes and come back stronger. Widnes made it so it could be no other club than them promoted. It wouldn't be that tough to do the same

You've got the name of a multi-millionaire backer available to throw money away have you. In fact, 2 if you don't mind, help Leigh and Fax no end next time round, especially when Cas and Wakey still haven't got a new ground.

No need for change.
They can invite anyone they want already.
Especially from a Development Area*.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Next round will see both Cas and Wakey in new stadiums , there will be nobody left to drop out
As for ' rules ' , this is the RFL , they changed the rules to protect the Crusaders , and that rule change has probably cost Fax a SL place
If Crusaders had not gone into administration Fax would today be celebrating being in SL , of that I have no doubt

| Said before, next round will see 16 teams. No one will be dropping barr Quins' bottom falling out.
That and a team from the Championship has already been guaranteed a license next time
